| | PT10 IT COULDN`T HAPPEN TO ME - 21 minutes | |
|
| A new video release produced to drive a safety message home about the danger of underground services.
Over the last decade, one British worker is killed on average every four weeks in electrical accidents alone. And around 20 times that number receive major electrical injuries.
The most frequent cause of death has been through contact with mains and service cables with digging machinery, pneumatic drills. Rock cutters, as well as hand tools. And every one of those accidents had one thing in common. None of the dead and maimed ever believed it would happen to them.
The Latest Safety Message
Paragon`s new video release "It couldn`t happen to me" has been produced to drive that safety message home.
The approx. (20) minute long programme has been made with the assistance and collaboration of (24 Seven & Wilmot Dixon) to ensure that the content is not just accurate, but also addresses the most important, relevant, urgent and up-to-date safety needs of the contracting (employees) and allied professions.

| From Construction or Maintenance to Warehousing and Window Cleaning, This is `Must Have` training tool.
Every year in the UK, on average, over thirty workers die and 1,500 suffer serious injury as a result of a fall from height in the workplace. Falls from height are the most common cause of fatal injury to workers in this country and the second most common cause of major injury to all employees. Ladder accidents are the major cause of these falls.
Ladder Safety - The Essentials addresses all the essential aspects of ladder safety with tips drawn from a wide range of industries and wide variations of common ladder usage. Contrary to popular belief, ladder accidents don’t just occur in the construction industry, they all too frequently occur in occupations such as warehousing, window cleaning, maintenance activities and in many other working situations. It’s a fact that you are just as likely to experience a ladder accident at work even if you only occasionally use a ladder in your job than if you use one every day.
This new video covers a wide range of ladder safety topics including:The types of ladders available e.g. single section, extension and step laddersLadder materials, e.g. aluminium, timber and fibreglass laddersClasses of ladders and weight limitsAssessing the job prior to using a ladderPreparation of ladders before each useCommon ladder accessoriesCarrying, erecting and lowering laddersClimbing a LadderLadder inspection and taggingThe proper storage of ladders
The guidance given is fully compliant with the latest UK “Work at Height Regulations” due to introduced into UK law in the summer of 2004.

| | PT13 Your Life in the Fast Lane - 27 minutes | |
|
| A co production as a member of HTMA Forum including the Health and Safety Executive, The Construction Industry Training Board and the TMCA. The very latest guidelines in footage!
Motorways and trunk roads are full of dangers for those who work on them. Most motorists who flash past them every day are more concerned with the delays they create than with how they manage to stay alive and unscathed. But the risks of death and injury to highway worker are extremely high so a new DVD has been produced to help them stay safe.
Your Life in the Fast Lane was commissioned by the Road Workers Safety Forum committee and supported by U.K.Traffic Management companies, Scottish Executive, Welsh Assembly Highways Agency, Health and Safety Executive and the CITB. It takes a fresh approach to safety on high speed highways and explores many other issues concerning the dangers on modern roads in greater detail than its predecessor the Your Life on the Line video.
Your Life in the Fast Lane is built around the Temporary Traffic Management on High Speed Roads-Good Working Practice document (GWP) created by the DVD`s commissioners.
Your Life in the Fast Lane:
- Shows how the planning process is the key to successful traffic management
- Identifies the essential planning personnel
- Lists the qualifications highway workers must possess
- Discusses the dangers of drink and drugs and the importance of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Illustrates different features of primary traffic management vehicles
- Itemises equipment and its inspection
- Advises on loading and checking the condition of signs and frames
- Details the key procedures necessary to keep operatives and road-users safe during highway maintenance and building
Content
Operatives are seen throughout the DVD in various scenarios . . .on high-speed roads with and without hard shoulders, we see their work proceeding on two and three lane motorways, starting with the positioning of advance warning signs.
The DVD concludes with a look at the safety zone, the reporting of accidents and dealing with unusual situations.
Gerry Duffy, from the HTMASF and chair of the sub committee of the Road Workers Safety Forum said: We believe this highly detailed and instructive DVD is more than a worthy successor to `Your Life on the Line`. It`s mine and the committees belief that Your Life in the Fast Lane will shortly be the industry standard in all site inductions and training sessions
